    There certainly is hope. My husband and I were each in for well over 50 years.

    We were both in the full time work, husband in bethel etc. We are fading for doctrinal reasons.

    Do not give up hope. Someone said about you showing them love even though they don't.

    Wonderful, love is the most effective. They can't tell you how they are aching inside because they have to shun you. t wouldn't be loyal to Jehovah, they think. But it is tearing your mother apart. It is by far your best weapon. Use it to the full.

    best wishes

    As they've been in for over 30 years they have their entire social circle there so it's not easy to just move out.

    Perhaps this anxiety can be eased if something can be done in advance to secure them some social outlet that's acceptable to them.
